BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

An encapsulated light-emitting diode device is disclosed.

2. Description of the Related Art

Generally, light-emitting diode chips (LEDs) having transparent substrates are divided into face-up type and flip-chip type. For the face-up type, the light-emitting diode chips are attached to carriers by gels or metals; for flip-chip type, the light-emitting diode chips are attached to carriers by metals or solders with the attached surface as the light extraction surface of the light-emitting diode chip or the surface parallel to it. Because the light extracted from the light-emitting layer of the light-emitting diode chips are 360 degree, the light emitting downward is generally reflected to the front of the light extraction side by the reflecting layers or extracted from the transparent substrates. The thickness of the transparent substrate should be properly adjusted so that the brightness of the light extraction is acceptable. Besides, when the size of the light-emitting diode chips is larger, there are more reflected light passing through the multi-quantum well (MQW) in the light-emitting layer. The light efficiency is reduced because of light absorption.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic illustration of conventional light-emitting device. As shown in FIG. 1, a light-emitting diode chip 100 is attached to a carrier 3 with an attached surface 1 which is parallel to the front light extraction surface 4 of the light-emitting diode chip 100. The light emitted downward is reflected to the front light extraction surface 4 or the lateral light extraction surface 5 by the reflector 2. The disadvantage of this device is when the size of the light-emitting diode chip is larger, there are more reflected light passing through the multi-quantum well (MQW) in the light-emitting layer. The light efficiency is reduced because of light absorption.

FIG. 10A is a lateral-view of the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50 of another embodiment of the present application. An encapsulated light-emitting diode device is formed by attaching the light-emitting diode chip 200 (or 300) according to the embodiments disclosed above to the first surface 504 a of a large transparent substrate 504 with a connecting layer (not shown in this figure). In order to manufacture an encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50 with larger amount of extracted light, a dome cover 802 covers the light-emitting diode chip 200 on the first surface 504 a and attaches the first surface 504 a of the transparent substrate 504 with a circular shape, as shown in FIG. 10B. In the preferred embodiment, the dome cover 802 can be hemispheric for light extraction purpose. The material of the dome cover 802 is selected from a transparent glue such as polyimide, BCB, PFCB, SU8, epoxy, Acrylic Resin, COC, PMMA, PET, PC, polyetherimide, fluorocarbon polymer, SOG, silicone, or other transparent organic material. Preferably, the light-emitting diode chip 200 is located at the geometry center of the projection of the dome cover 802 on the first surface 504 a.

Referring to FIG. 10A, a circuit carrier 501 with circuits thereon is provided, wherein the circuit carrier 501 can be a printed circuit board (PCB), a flexible circuit board (FCB), a ceramic substrate, a composite substrate, or a silicon substrate. The transparent substrate 504 of the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50 is attached to a surface 503 of the carrier 501 by an adhering material 605, wherein the first surface 504 a of the transparent substrate 504 and its parallel surface (the second surface 504 b) are disposed on the surface 503. In a preferred embodiment, the first surface 504 a of the transparent substrate 504 is approximately perpendicular to the surface 503. Nevertheless, the included angle between the first surface 504 a and the surface 503 is not limited to 90 degrees, which means the included angle a can be larger than 0 degree. For light extraction purpose, the included angle is preferred between 45 degrees and 135 degrees.

In addition, the p and n electrodes of the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50 are electrically connected to the circuit (not shown in the figure) on the circuit carrier 501 through directly bonding, solder bonding, and/or wire bonding respectively to form an encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50.

The light emitted from the active layer of the light-emitting diode chip 200 is omnidirectional. Part of the light emitted to the first surface 504 a of the transparent substrate 504 is passed through the transparent substrate 504 and emitted from the second surface 504 b of the transparent substrate 504. Besides, part of the light emitted to the dome cover 802 is also passed through the dome cover 802 omnidirectionally due to the arc shape of the dome cover 802. Therefore, the light extraction efficiency of the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50 is increased. Furthermore, according to FIG. 1, because large amount of the light extracted from the front light extraction surface of the light-emitting diode chip, the light extraction distribution in this embodiment can be tunable as required by adjusting the included angle a, namely, by adjusting the angle between front light extraction surface and the surface of the carrier.

Then, when disposing the material of the dome cover 802 on the first surface 504 a, the hollow circular shape of the fixing glue is used to be a dam to fix the dome cover 802 to be a nearly hemispheric form with circular projection on the first surface 504 a. In addition, before covered by the dome cover 802, the light-emitting diode chip 200 is located on the first surface 504 a at the geometry center of the hollow circular shape of the fixing glue 510.

Referring to FIG, 10B, from the top-view of the transparent substrate 504, the fixing glue 510 is formed on the first surface 504 a in a hollow circle shape surrounding the periphery of the dome cover 802 and the light-emitting diode chip 200 is located at the geometry center of the fixing glue 510. With the fixing glue 510, the light-emitting diode chip 200 can be located on the first surface 504 b nearly at the center of the projection of the dome cover 802 and the glue dispensed inside the fixing glue 510 can be blocked and set with a circular projection on the first surface 504 a. Depending on different cohesion of different glue material, the glue can be formed in a dome shape having different contact angle with the first surface 504 a. In the preferred embodiment, by choosing the glue with adequate viscosity, the glue can form a dome cover 802 with nearly hemispheric shape, Preferably, the material of the fixing glue 510 can be a white reflective glue such as PVA, polyimide, BCB, PFCB, SU8, epoxy, Acrylic Resin, COC, PMMA, PET, PC, polyetherimide, fluorocarbon polymer, SOG, or other organic material to enhance the light extraction efficiency.

Referring to FIG. 11, a lateral-view of the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 60 of another embodiment of the present application is disclosed. In this embodiment, most part in the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 60 is the same as the aforementioned encapsulated light-emitting diode device 50. In this embodiment, in order to form a light source with more divergent light emission profile, a second dome cover 803 is formed on the second surface 504 b of the transparent substrate 504 with the shape corresponding to the first dome cover 802. With similar manufacturing method, a second fixing glue 511 is also preferably formed on the second surface 504 b in advance to fix the dome shape for the second dome glue. By combining the two dome covers 802 and 803, the light-emitting diode chip 200 can be embedded in the substantially spherical or spheroidal transparent covers.

In this embodiment, the light-emitting diode chip 200 is substantially located at the center of the circular projection on the first surface 504 a of the spherical or spheroidal cover (802 and 803). Therefore, the encapsulated light-emitting diode device 60 is close enough to an omnidirectional light source.

Furthermore, for the color-mixing purpose, a phosphor layer can be formed directly on the light-emitting diode chip in a layer form, in a sheet form, or conformably within the dome cover 802 and/or 803, the phosphor particles can be dispersed in the encapsulated glue 802 and/or 803, the phosphor can be formed conformably on the outside surface of the dome cover 802 and/or 803, or the combination thereof. For example, by mixing the blue light emitting from of the blue light-emitting diode chip with the yellow light emitting from the light passing through the conformal coated yellow phosphor on part surfaces of the blue light-emitting diode, a white light-emitting light source can be achieved.
